Hover text

Recommended Posts

Is there a way to make the hover text always appear next to the cursor even when scrolling down to the bottom of the page. It works ok at the top but when down the bottom the hover still displays at the top of the screen.

 

<html>

<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
#toolTipBox {
display: none;
padding: 5;
font-size: 20px;
border: #800000 solid 4px;
font-family: verdana;
position: absolute;
background: #ffd038;
colour: #008000;
}
-->
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

var theObj="";

function toolTip(text,me)  {
  theObj=me;
  theObj.onmousemove=updatePos;
  document.getElementById('toolTipBox').innerHTML=text;
  document.getElementById('toolTipBox').style.display="block";
  window.onscroll=updatePos
  updatePos();
}

function updatePos()   {
  var ev=arguments[0]?arguments[0]:event;
  var x=ev.clientX;
  var y=ev.clientY;
  diffX=24;
  diffY=0;
  document.getElementById('toolTipBox').style.top = y-2+diffY+document.body.scrollTop+ "px";
document.getElementById('toolTipBox').style.left = x-2+diffX+document.body.scrollLeft+ "px";
theObj.onmouseout=hideMe;
}
function hideMe()  {
  document.getElementById('toolTipBox').style.display="none";
}
-->
</script>
</head>

<body>
<div align="center">
<span id ="toolTipBox" width="200"></span>
<img src="YOUR IMAGE HERE.jpg" border="0" onmouseover="toolTip(' PLACE TOOL TIP HERE', this)"></div>
</body>

</html>
